Hi,<div><br></div><div>Autotest is a live testing tool (similar too Ruby Autotest, but the Smalltalk way, more dynamic).</div><div><br></div><div>Autotest automatically runs tests related to the methods you edit. Screencast to see it in action:��<a href="http://lolgzs.free.fr/pharo/autotest3.mpeg">http://lolgzs.free.fr/pharo/autotest3.mpeg</a></div>

<div><br></div><div><div>Autotest uses the following heuritics to find the tests to run:</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- if the method is a test, runs it</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- it the method is a test setUp or tearDown, run all the tests of the TestCase</div>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- else find all senders which are tests in the same package and runs them (it detects different packages that are related, for example ProfStef-Core and ProfStef-Test)</div>

</div><div><br></div><div><div>To activate the Autotest dashboard:</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- open the settings browser</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- go under System</div>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">		</span>- check &quot;Show Autotest Dashboard&quot; option</div></div><div><br></div><div>To load it:</div><div><br></div><div><div>Gofer new</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">	</span>squeaksource: &#39;Autotest&#39;;</div>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">	</span>package: &#39;Autotest&#39;;</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre">	</span>load</div></div><div><br></div><div>HelpSystem book included.</div>

<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I would like to know what needs enhancements, what to add (and to remove :) and whether you would use it or not (and why).</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for feedback.</div><div><br></div>
